Then insert your new key. and do the same thing.. It is in the owners manual. But you have to have two...

    2003 Cobra IRS on 2001 Cobra

    I never had a big wheel hop issue on my 01' to start with> I think that upgrading the bushings to Delrin or Alum. is the best upgrade. Or at least from that I have "SEEN" Saw some photos of before and after the install of Delrin and it was a definite upgrade. Now on my 03' the wheel hop is...

    Port and polish on 4V heads?

    The 03' manifold is a Blower,so yes you have to use the blower.. For the money and if I am reading your first post correctly. You want to do all this to you 98' Mustang. You should just pull the engine and take it to a good engine builder and let them at it. You will drop about $5k and it will...

    Port and polish on 4V heads?

    There are tow Blower kits for the mach engine. I believe that both of them are now shker compatible. You probably want to look into the cost of wiring the engine, trans hookup, Kmember and so on. I really do not think the price is worth it. For the money you could build your engine to be much...

    2003 Cobra IRS on 2001 Cobra

    For the amount of money that you would spend on the purchase and swap of the IRS, you could just build up your 01' IRS and it would be better than if you swapped it. Get some Delrin Bushings, upgrade the H-Shafts, put in the brace, and new shocks and struts. The purchase of teh 03' IRS will set...

    Mach 1 Mach 1 or Cobra for AutoX(Solo II)?

    If you look at the classes. FS vs. AS... The Mach ould be against the 99'-01' Cobra and the F-body's. The Cobra's can do well but they do not have the TQ curve at low RPM's that are needed to pull out of the corners int eh tight courses. The 03' Cobra will be going against a well...

    2001 Cobra? New Mach 1?

    Get over your bitterness bro. I will put it this way. I have owned Two Cobra's (01' and 03'). Oh wait. I own a Mach 1 now too. It sounds like you have been owned by an 01' and refuse to get over it. Don't live through other peoples posts. Put up your #'s and run with them. It is all good. The...

    INteresting dyno proof about how 03 Cobras respond to mods-

    Higher octane gas does not make you car go faster. It just stops your car from Pinging. Less ping makes the car go faster till there is no longer any Ping. I have to run upwards of 95 to get rid of the ping with the crappy Ca. gas. Eric

    2001 Tranny vs. 99 Tranny

    All the 01' Cobra's should have come with crappy 3650. They are notorously weak in the shift fork area. There is a TSB for them. They used Alum. Forks compared to steel in other cars. I guess Ford thought it would save in weight. Ahh. No.. The older un revised T-3650 was not a good tranny. The...

    04 Mach vs 01 Cobra Conv.

    Update to my first post.. The Mach is really turining me. The wife is driving my car while I change the oil and all that kind of crap on her Mach. Man is the Mach nice. The throttle response makes me feel bad about my 01' Cobra. It by far feels better than the Cobra. The snap when you hit the...

    Are Any Deals Going On For Leftover 2003s?

    Work with the Fleet guy. He does not get a commission and will not give you all the crap that the sale screw will give you. He doesn't give a crap if you buy the ESP or what ever. He will try to sell it to you but will not try to ram it down your throat. I have not bought a car from a sales...

    04 Mach vs 01 Cobra Conv.

    As an owner of both an 01' Cobra and a 03' Mach1 I would say go the convert if you are not going to track the car. Nothing better than to go out with the top down on a nice night. The chicks dig it too. If you are married ask your wife which one you should get.. As toot eh Mach being more...

    2001 Cobra Common Problems?

    the Tranny's suck. They did make some small changes to the ones in the years after.. That is the only thing that I would really consider a issue that many have. Some have some vibrations, myself for one..
